724495 divided by 87 
We want to divide 724495 by 87.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 87

Step 2:
When dividing 72 by 87, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 724 / 87

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 724 by 87, we get 8 with a remainder of 28.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 696 from 724 to get 28.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 284 / 87

Advancing to step 4:
The number 87 fits into 284 3 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 83.0
Deduct 261 from 284 and we're left with 23.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 239 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
87 can be fit into 239 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 65.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 832.0
If we take 174 away from 239, we end up with 65.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 65 and continue: 655 / 87

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 655 by 87, we get 7 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8327.0
Subtracting 609 from 655 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
460 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8327.5
If we take 435 away from 460, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 250 by 87, we get 2 and a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8327.52
If we subtract 174 from 250, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
760 divided by 87 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8327.528
Subtracting 696 from 760 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 640 by 87, we get 7 with a remainder of 31.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8327.5287
If we take 609 away from 640, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
87 goes into 310 3 times with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8327.52873
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 261 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 12:
490 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8327.528735
Deduct 435 from 490 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 550 by 87, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8327.5287356
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 522 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 280 by 87, we get 3 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8327.52873563
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 261 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

The final result is 8327.52873563 with a remainder of 1.9e-08.
